Lyrics

[00:00.32] I woke up this morning aching with pain
[00:19.76] Don't think I can work, but I'll try
[00:28.86] The car's in the shop so I thumbed all the way
[00:39.01] Oh, these days I barely get by.
[00:48.45] I walked home from work and it rained all the way
[00:58.59] My wife left and didn't say why
[01:07.90] She laid all her bills on the desk in the hall
[01:18.34] Oh, these days I barely get by.
[01:28.26] Put my only two dollars on my favorite horse
[01:38.17] He lost by a nose and I cried
[01:47.25] Oh, my boss says come winter we'll all be laid off
[01:57.30] Oh, these days I barely get by.
[02:05.95] These days I barely get by
[02:16.63] I want to give up, lay down and die
[02:25.43] Worst of all is when she told me goodbye
[02:36.05] Oh, these days I barely get by.
[02:45.85] Oh, these days, one barely gets by...
[02:56.66]
